UBA head calls for comprehensive road charge to curb car emissions
Maria Krautzberger, head of the Federal Environment Agency (UBA), says Germany should introduce a road charge linked to mileage for all vehicles, to cut emissions from the transport sector. 鈥淭here has been no emissions reduction whatsoever from the transport sector for 25 years,鈥 Krautzberger told Welt Online in an interview, arguing that overall car use must be cut to lower emissions. Krautzberger said public transport had to be made 鈥渕ore attractive鈥 and that a quota should ensure e-cars accounted for 70 percent for new vehicle registrations by 2030.
